RAPID VS.. SLOW FILLING SILOS.

An examination of the various COM
municstions on the subject shows quite
a change recommended from the form
er practice, which was to entirely fill the
silo as rapidly as possible, and immedi-
ately close it alright. Now, most adj
wise to fill in three to four or five feet,
tramp down the edges all around, and
let it lie two to four days, or long enough
for the temperature to rise to $50 or 140
degrees. This temperature partially
cooks the food, ard if maintained some
time il kills the various bacteria which
promoie the acid or sour fermentation).
Then add another similar layer, and
wait again for the heating, and so on
until the silo is full. By the old pro-
cess, SO often unsatisfactory, the material
was heated enough to induce fermenta-
ton and to form just the conditions en-
Ijoyed by the bacteria. but did not heat
enough to kill them. The warmth of
each successive layer is at first kept in
by the new layer, but gradually passes
upward into it, in part. The whole
mass, however, remains warm long
enough to thoroughly destroy the bacte.
rial fermentation, and so the silage re-
mains sweet. Indeed, the warmth in
duced by leaving the layers with a little
air contained in them at first produces
change of the starchy material into a
sweet and soluble one. At this point,
further change being prevented by the
successive additions, which exclude air,
the silage materials remain sweet.
Hence we have now sweet silage," in
stead of the sour silage," or the alco-
holic silage, which was chiefly obtained
until recently, and it was this kind to
which so many objections were raised.

BLACK TONGUE IN CATTLE.

The symptoms are inflammation OF
the mouth, swelling of the head and
face, discharge of bloody saliva, and
high fever marks the first stages. Ulcers
soon appear under and on the sides of
the tongue. Then the throat and neck
swell, and if the disease is not checked
gangrene ensues and the animal dies.
The disease is said to yield readily to
early and proper treatment. The fol-
lowing has proved very successful The
animal should be bled from the neck
vein. Give him castor oil, one pint, to
be repeated in ten hours if it should not
operate. Then use the following Pow

of lime, two ounces corn meal, two
quarts. Mix, and with this powder swab

SAWDUST FOR STABLES.

Nothing makes so soft and easy bed
for our dumb animals" as sawdust,
more particularly the horse, as it is ma

brush their bedding, if straw is used,
under their hind feet, but would be less
liable to move the sawdust. AS regards

Of inhaling the dry dust, we know of q
stable where horses are let, and I was
informed by the owner that he had used
sawdust for twelve years and never had
been able to discover any bad effects
from the use of it, and pointed out sew
eral horses that had been thus bedded
for ten or twelve years and he had sold
the manure at the usual rates, and never
had heard Of any objections on account

SOWING SEEDS.

The proper distribution of seed in
sowing is quite important. and there are
few who can do it just right. Machines
have been invented for the purpose, and
many of them do the work more evenly
than it can possibly be done by hand.
Some seeds, from their peculiar forma.
ton, have to be sown by hand. 1t is a
difficult matter to give directions for
sowing seeds, and to say how much is
required to the acre. Much depends
upon the season, and also upon the
freshness of the scotland even seed
known to be new may be deficient in
terminating properties. The best rule
is, when sowing in rows, to be governed
by the character of the seed and relative
strength ofthe young plants: for instance.
carrot, parsnip, and some others have
light seed, and the young plants are
feeble. Such should be sown thickly
and afterwards be thinned out. Other
plants, such as cucumbeTs, melons, etc.,
are liable to be attacked by bugs, and it
is well to make some allowance on this
account. Most heavy seeds can be sown
thin, especially if broadcast, the chances
being that they will be too thick in case
they are sown by inexperienced hands.
Take, for example, the seed of the fiat
turnip, one pound of which, in measure
but little more than pint, will SOW an
acre of land, but it requires very nice
calculation to get the seed evenly dis
tributed and make such small quantity
cover so much ground.
Seeds sown by machine may be regu-
lated by sowing first on a cloth or floor,
and setting the gauge to the proper
grade. Some seeds are variable in size !;
such should be divided by sitting, and,
if sown by machine, put in separately.
1t is advisable to always SOW as soon as
the ground is prepared, while the sur
face soil is still fresh and moist and
when covered by raking always draw
the rake lengthwise with the rows. Very
fine seed should not be covered too

Mr.. EDITOR : AS little item of the
early history of Kenosba in mail facili-
ties, l will give you from Mr.. Durkee's
own words. He says the building where
the mail was left for Kenosha was stu
ated on the Milwaukee road, little
north of the house lately occupied by
Ben. Newman, between there and Salem
tines. The old log house was occupied
in 1916, but was soon vacated, and one
cannot now locate the spot where it
stood. Mr. Durkee often went out on
foot and brought the mail to Kenosha.

Many of the lot-owners in the city
cemetery are dissatisfied with the action
of the City Council OH Monday night in
voting Mr.. Oliver Hoye out of his posi-
ton as sexton Of the cemetery, which
he has held for twenty-three years.
They have no fault to find with the man
who has been elected to fill Mr.. Hoye's
place, but they consider that the action
of the Council was uncalled for, as Mr..
Hoye has always been faithful in attend
ing to his duties, and they have been SO
well satisfied with his work that they
have given him instructions to attend to
their lots in the cemetery in the future
as in the past.
